raspiBackup 0.7.3 beta is available now with a new feature: Create a clone. See github.com/framps/raspiBa… for more details #raspiBackup #raspberrypi

raspiBackup v0.7.2 has just been released to the general public. Details can be found at github.com/framps/raspiBa…. #raspiBackup #raspberrypi

raspiBackup v0.7.2 beta is now available. See github.com/framps/raspiBa… for details #raspiBackup #raspberrypi

It took a long time, but now there is a dedicated raspiBackup documentation page available. It was a lot of work, but I think it was worth it. Here we are => framps.github.io/raspiBackupDoc/ #raspiBackup #raspberrypi

raspiBackup V0.7.1 now supports gpt partition layout #raspibackup #raspberrypi

I just published another release 0.7.0.3 of raspiBackup because hostnames which include the string "-e" causes raspiBackups smart recycle to fail. If you have "-e" in your hostname please upgrade immediately. #raspibackup #raspberrypi

I just published v0.7.0.2. Just check github.com/framps/raspiBa… for the fixes included. #raspiBackup #raspberrypi

Unfortunately the first rsync backup with the new release 0.7 will be a full backup. Read github.com/framps/raspiBa… how to get raspiBackup to create an incremental backup instead #raspiBackup #raspberrypi

As usual a new release has some bugs. Thus 0.7.0.1 is out now ;-) #raspibackup #raspberrypi

raspiBackup release 0.7 was just published. For details see github.com/framps/raspiBa… #raspiBackup # raspberrypi

I unpublished recent raspiBackup beta. There have been various changes that I want to test carefully first. But there is light at the end of the tunnel :-) #raspiBackup #raspberrypi

I got a feature request recently which will minimze the downtime of any services: Use btrfs snapshots to create the system backup locally and then xfer the backup to the remote backup partition. I will work on this for next release #raspiBackup #raspberrypi

raspiBackup 0.7.0-beta is available. See github.com/framps/raspiBa… for details. #raspiBackup #raspberrypi

In next release of raspiBackup the partitions to restore can be selected and if rsync is used a fast rsync restore to an existing system can be done just to wipe out any changes which cause the updated system no longer to boot. #raspiBackup # raspberrypi

I hope to be able to release a new beta of raspiBackup next month. The announced feature to backup external partitions will not be included. The testing effort is simply too great.

@fmarzocca I saw your issue. I'm busy working on new features of raspiBackup right now. I suggest to add a detailed description in your issue how to reproduce the issue and what's the OS level and RPi HW you use. This may attract folks to look at your issue.

@linuxframp I have an issue with rpi-clone but it seems I couldn't get support

I forgot to mention the clone feature will not be added to raspiBackup given raspiBackup's design is targeted for backups and not cloning. There is a tool called rpi-clone available which clones systems perfectly. #raspiBackup #raspberrypi

Just working on a new feature of raspiBackup: Backup external partitions in addition to the OS partitions. Then you can also backup your music partition or any other external connected partition. Refactoring code is required and needs some time ... #raspiBackup #raspberrypi

There is now a raspiBackup prototype available which supports to clone a running system to another device. Useful to create a cold standby backup :-). For details see github.com/framps/raspiBa… #raspiBackup #raspberrypi

rpi-clone is broken again on Bookworm :-( Yesterday the link from /boot/cmdline.txt to /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt was removed in an update. #raspberrypi
